provides the flexibility to transport the Mitre
Saw to other work areas.
Note:
Ensure the mounting surface is not
warped as an uneven surface can cause
binding and inaccurate cutting.
RELEASING THE HEAD LOCKING PIN
The head locking pin is used to hold the
cutting head down when transporting
or storing the Mitre Saw. The Mitre Saw
must not be used when it is in lockdown
position.
1. To release the cutting head push down
on the operating handle and pull the
head locking pin. Rotate the pin a quarter
to secure it in the released position (Fig. 2).
2. Gently raise the cutting head.
ADJUSTING THE MITRE ANGLE
The mitre table lock knob is used to lock
the rotating mitre table at the required
mitre angle.
The Mitre Saw cuts from 0° to 45° both left
and right. The rotating mitre table features
positive stops at 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 30° and 45°
for quick and accurate setting of common
mitre angles. The mitre angle indicator
shows what mitre angle the Mitre Saw is
set to (Fig. 4).
To adjust the mitre angle proceed as
follows:
1. Rotate the mitre table lock to unlock it
(Fig. 5).
2. You can now set the desired mitre angle
by rotating the mitre table to the left or
right, using the mitre angle indicator to
select the required mitre angle.
3. The mitre table will stop at each
common cutting angle.
Warning: Ensure the mitre table lock
knob is tight before making a cut. If
it is not secured, the table may move
during operation and cause serious
personal injury.
